Congress, allies sabotaged Jammu’s national projects: Dr Jitendra Singh
The minister further alleged that the Congress also denied 4% reservation to the people living along the International Border in this region.
The pre-dawn cordon and search operation (CASO) launched in the Kareemabad village of Jammu and Kashmir’s Pulwama district on early Tuesday morning by the security forces has been called off.
The CASO was launched after the authorities received specific information about the presence of militants in the area after which the security forces started a cordon and search operation in Kareemabad village in the wee hours on Tuesday, say the reports.
However, the operation was called off after no militant was found in the village. The security forces withdrew after groups of stone pelting youths engaged them in pitched clashes, say the reports from the village.

Security forces in large numbers were carrying out a door-to-door search operation to flush out the hiding militants after receiving information about their presence in the village, said the reports.
On Monday, the security forces had foiled a major mishap by defusing an IED that was planted by terrorists on the vital Jammu-Poonch Highway to target Army convoys moving towards areas along the Line of Control (LoC) with Pakistan occupied Jammu and Kashmir (POJK).
